Another example is Les Miserables. That book is fantastic. I'm at a loss for adjectives. I haven't really read anything since, but I loved that book, and I loved Jean Valjean, and hated Thenardier. But the the book takes a little while t

I like how PG coralled applicants. They shouldn't puff up their idea as they are the actual investment, but they shouldn't directly puff up themselves because that they should assume the investors will do it. All that is left to do is mak

The articles thesis is ok, but the hook sucks. When was positive thinking ever about blind optimism? I thought it was about altering your perspective to realize your assumptions aren't clear and obvious. "I'm good enough, I'm smart enoug

The OP was attempting to dismiss the 14 year olds responsibility of action based on his development. We really should expect more of our adolescents. Your observation that some adults appear to never mature is irrelevant. Society makes it

E.g. we get lots of requests from dummers for our songs without the drum tracks so they could play along. What do you play? Could you just convince him that yall should release a series of tracks each dropping one instrument? Maybe only

From my experience with my families denomination, they see hell as the temporary disconnect from God followed by a lapse into non-existence. Which is an example of Daniel's point. There are different interpretations, so attacking a specif

I think it is. "I, Toaster" is a play off of "I, Pencil" attempting to show how the truth is, our positions in society are tenuous and because we have become unlikely to be capable of fending for ourselves, we are helpless. This article, "
